Since I can't install plugins because of timeout problems I've not solved yet, I have to work with date_select.
It works fine for me when I create or update models, but now I have to do a search form and need to recover date fields from date_select. date_select makes some select fields with names like to_date(1i), to_date(2i) and so on. When I try to get the values in the controller I get nothing at all. I've tried:
to_date = params[:search][:to_date]
and
params[:search]['to_date(2i)'], but this way it's a bit embarrassing because I'd have to check every field which compound to_date field and results ugly for me. Is it possible to get the date in a sentence?
